What are the settings for exporting the best possible quality movies?

I'm trying to export movies using imove 11, there are a ton of export setting, im wondering which are the best for exporting top quality movies? assuming file size doesnt matter.

ok so heres what the movie inspector says:
Format: Photo- JPEG, 1024 x 576, Million Linear PCM, 24 bit little-endian signed integer, 2channels, 44100 Hz
FPS: 17.80
Data Rate:9.63 mbit/s
Current Size:1024 x 576 pixels (actual)
So do i want to somehow duplicate these settings?
The other thing I was thinking about was opening the file in Quicktime and using the "trim" feature to edit it down that way, although its not as neat. Would this preserve the quality? And would it get rid of the excess footage (which is what I want)? Or would it like keep that footage attached to the file somehow?
Thanks

Best Settings for Exporting DVD Footage in a Movie File

Hello,
I've been trying to find the best settings for exporting DVD footage into a movie file from Adobe Premiere CS6.
I recently have been using my Magnavox DVD recorder for recording VHS tapes that I made long ago for shows and various other things, and no matter what, my footage doesn't come out as it needs to be.
Here's an example of what I did recently with my own settings:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFV4sT7rHGs
I'm not expecting HD footage, I know these are tapes, but I'm playing the raw footage on my Xbox 360, and it looks better than this. I had to directly use the VOB files on the DVD for this, as trying to rip the files into an AVI or any other format with a DVD ripper didn't do anything, in fact it degraded the quality and made the audio not play in Premiere.
So what would be some good settings for exporting a sequence with DVD footage that is from a VHS into a movie file, preferably one that wouldn't degrade the quality?
Thanks!

First, read Why not edit mpeg http://tangentsoft.net/video/mpeg/edit.html to get a general idea of why a VOB makes a very poor source file (which is a renamed MPG, with some other stuff like menu screens)
Also, Read Bill Hunt on editing a VOB/MPG file http://forums.adobe.com/thread/464549
Once you have a DVD compliant VOB on your timeline, and understanding that a standalone DVD recorder sometimes plays fast-n-loose with "compliance" per the DVD specification, about all you can do is export to standard or widescreen DV AVI and accept the fact that re-encoding an already compressed file is just not going to give great results

Best possible quality movie file?

I have a sequence that is DV Pal and my FCP is version 6.0.4
I need to render out with best quality as possible, what´s the best settings to get the best possible quality?

Export as QT movie, same settings, self-contained.
That's the best you can do to preserve best quality and avoid any compression steps.

What are the settings for exporting a video to a DVD?

can someone please help

I assume you understand that the file exported from Premiere must be authored onto a DVD. Just pick the MPEG2-DVD format and pick a preset that fits your material. And H.264 Bluray or MPEG2-Bluray for Bluray.
If you don't understand authoring, you need a program like Encore:
This is the link for info re using Encore CS6 with CC, updated for CC 2014 and the cloud desktop install.
http://helpx.adobe.com/encore/kb/encore-cs6-installed-cc.html
It has links for getting the library (which is not installed with Encore) and a workflow with CC versions.
In the cloud desktop, assuming you have PR CC 2014 installed, you are looking for this:

What are good settings for a QT movie on .Mac?

QTimers,
I post movies edited in FCPro 3 on a .Mac web site for the in-laws. They are on a DSL line. When I export the finished video from FCP to a QT movie, I face a vast array of choices that I don't understand. I can choose from many video codecs, and I have to choose a key frame rate, and a size (I chose 320x240). The movie I did today came in at 27Mb, and it's only a minute in length!
Can someone recommend some settings that will not create huge files?
Thanks.

So long as the recipients have QT7 try the H.264 codec. I have a couple of movies which I've exported at 384x288 (half size PAL) at 256kbps video data rate, 128kbps audio, full frame rate (25fps) with key frames every 50 frames and, while they're not absolutely perfect, they are very acceptible. One is 5.5 minutes and is 15Mb long, the other is 1 minute long and is 2.8Mb. They'll play over a 512kbps connection so long as the .Mac servers are behaving themselves (they're rather slow at times). H.264 /does/ take a long time to encode the video though - my five minute movie took about 35 minutes to encode on a dual 2.3GHz G5 directly from Final Cut Express.
You could also try the MP4 and Sorenson 3 codecs but you're not going to get anything like the same quality at the same data rates (at least not with what comes as standard with QT).
It all seems to be something of a black art doesn't it? I started doing this only a few weeks ago. At first I fiddled around more or less at random before approaching it more sensibly using short clips and changing one thing at a time. Eventually, I arrived at settings which satisfied me.
Best of luck!

What are correct settings for AEBS as a DSL router?

Just bought a new AEBS to function as a wireless router for my DSL and am configuring it in OSx 10.7.3 using the airport utility setup menu on my late 2011 MBA. My 3 y/o old AEBS connects just fine - the (ATT) westell modem and internet are functional. The new AEBS network is detected but won't connect to internet and a message scrolls next to the wifi icon " connecting to PPPoE". When I did the setup, I was prompted for name and password for PPPoE and supplied this . The modem connection info says "PPP is located on the modem" and I wonder if supplying the name and pw for PPPoE was necessary for the new AEBS? Are there some settings I need to change in the configuration? Ideas appreciated!

If your Westell modem (actually, it is likely a gateway...a combination modem/router) is set up for "PPP is on the modem", then the AEBS should be configured to Connect Using = DHCP or Ethernet. The AEBS also needs to be configured in Bridge Mode.
Open AirPort Utility, click on the AEBS, and click Edit
Click the Internet tab and change to setting to "Connect Using DHCP"
Then click the Network tab and set the Router Mode for "Off (Bridge Mode)"
Update to save changes and restart the network by powering everything off in any order that you want. Then start the Westell device first, followed by the AEBS a minute later, etc until everything is powered back up.
This type of setup may work OK for you.
If not, you will need to change the Westell setup to "PPP is on the router" and then configure the AEBS to provide the PPPoE service as you did originally.
AT&T does generally advise that the modem should be in "Bridge Mode" or "PPP is on the router" when other routers are used with the "modem". See this document for more info:

What are good tutorials for learning the 3d interface in Photoshop?

I'm looking for some good tutorials that will orient me to the basics of working in 3d in PS (primarily concerned with learning how to control the camera and also how to use 3d layers).
Thanks!
Daniel

As it happens, if you ever watch 'The Photoshop Guys' on Kelby TV, they nearly all use MBPs exclusively. I believe one of them also uses a desktop — maybe Cory Barker because he does all the 3D stuff. I'd worry that a laptop that does not specify video RAM, is using onboard video, and not a dedicated video card. The GPU is an important component regards Photoshop performance, so make sure you get it right.

What are proxy settings for

my pc would not connect to the internet or to mozilla because it says mozilla are using some sort of proxy. i have now turned the proxy off. will this harm anything.

Usually Firefox will connect to the network using your system settings, which you can find either in IE or in the Windows Control Panel, Internet Options, on the Connections tab under LAN Settings.
Firefox ''can'' use a different connection method to take advantage of an intermediary. For example:
* Security software on your PC which intercepts and cleanses your web traffic
* Private VPN service that sends your requests out through a different device so it can't be tracked back to your ISP
However, these settings also could be used by an attacker to divert you away from the "real" internet to one where fake sites can be interposed to capture your passwords or other personal information.
Not sure exactly what is happening in your case, but if you made a note of the earlier settings, that would be helpful in investigating further.

What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Mac?
Export your Timeline content to a .mp4 file, using export settings which have been customized under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the export's preset.
See Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD and .mp4 category. The exported file is then uploaded to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
If you post the properties of your source video and project settings, I will suggest the settings for the Timeline content export to file saved to the computer
hard drive for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site.

Which are the best settings for exporting comps before edditing in Premiere Pro

Hello everyone!
As the title says, which are the best settings for exporting comps from AE to Pr.Pro and then edit them?
Let me explain: I have two comps in AE (intro and outro) and want to export them in Pr.Pro for edditing along with a fottage i shot.
When i render them the size of the files are huge (30 sec= 7GB).
Which is the best method (and settings) i can export the intro and outro to a 'normal' file size and then put them in Pr.Pro without loosing any quality??
[Comp settings: HDTV 1080 29.97 (1920x1080)]
AE and Premiere Pro both CS4

If you're rendering and exporting an intermediate video file to go from After Effects to any other piece of post-production software (such as Premiere Pro), you want to make sure that you're not losing any quality.
Most compression methods, which make movies smaller, also lose some of the image data---i.e., quality. There are a few compression methods that don't lose any image data; these are "lossless" codecs. These lossless codecs do decrease the size of a video file, but they're nowhere near as effective at decreasing size as the lossy codecs are. But file size isn't important when you're doing post-production work. Big files are a fact of life in post-production.
Examples of lossless codecs include the PNG codec and the Animation codec at the highest quality settings, both of which can be used in a QuickTime (.mov) container. I prefer the PNG codec; it's more efficient for photorealistic images, whereas Animation is more efficient for things like cartoons. There are lots of other lossless and nearly lossless codecs. A lot of people that do video editing like the Lagarith codec, but that is something that you'd have to go and get; it's not part of a standard CS5 or QuickTime installation.
See these FAQ entries for information about compression and why file sizes are big for losslessly encoded files:
"FAQ: Why is my output file huge...?"
"FAQ: What is the best format for rendering and exporting from After Effects?"
By the way, keep in mind that you don't always need to render and export an intermediate movie to go from After Effects to Premiere Pro. There are other ways to move data back and forth between these applications, including Dynamic Link. Which is best depends on the specific circumstance. See "Working with Premiere Pro and After Effects".

What are the proper settings for export to Windows DVD Creator?

I'm trying to write some DV-Widescreen material to a DVD using Windows DVD maker (hey, it's free.)    So far I've tried "H.264", "MPEG2" and "DVD-Wide" settings, and various permutations.
I either get a single file (.mp4) which Windows DVD Maker won't recognize at all, or I get three separate files: .m2v, .wav, and .xmp.   The only one Windows DVD Maker recognizes is the m2v file, which is video-only (no audio).
Seems like this should be really simple given the awesome power of Media Encoder, but I can't find the right combination of settings.    Can anyone help?

Use "MPEG-2 DVD" and in the settings panel, under the MULTIPLEXER tab, change Multiplexing from "NONE" to "DVD" - this will output a single file that DVD Maker will accept.
Under AUDIO tab, I set audio to Dolby and DVD Maker accepted the result. I don't have any speakers attached to the test computer at the moment, nor did I burn a test DVD, but the fact that DVD Maker readily accepts the file suggests that all will be fine. You might also try MPEG audio, see what works for you, but Multiplexing is the key.
While DVD Maker does accept the AVI file you gave it, keep in mind that you are then rendering TWICE, once to AVI, and then DVD Maker needs to further transcode the AVI to MPEG-2 for the DVD. Makes more sense to render direct to MPEG-2 DVD format and be done with it.
